The suspect was arrested Monday in the assault on the officer outside Gracie Mansion, where the mayor and his family live.
The mayor was not home at the time.
The officer was struck in the back with a pellet at about 7:15 p.m. Sunday. Her injuries were minor.
Police say there’s no indication the officer was intentionally struck.
Police also questioned a woman but she has not been charged.
Investigators believe the shooter also damaged windows in the same neighborhood with a pellet gun earlier this summer.
The investigation is ongoing.
interesting how this gun control zealot (like bloomberg) likes to preach with the presence of multiple gun totting people protecting HIM and HIS FAMILY.
Hizzoner has stopped Stop and Frisk – do you really feel safer??
We can thank the askonim for telling their people to vote for Deblasio. I suppose that they are also for the Iran deal and Hillary (because she loves the Yidden so much)/
